Hi,
the problem comes from the fact, that the region becomes very thin
compared to the plot range. The numerical algorithm seems to have
problems to decide if the region exists or not.
An easy work around would be make the surface "thick" by deleting the
inequality: z<= x
or you could make it "thick enough" by specifying e.g.: z <= x + 10000
